Ranboo POV

I had just got in the car. I was dressed and ready for school, with my practice clothes, and back pack. I didn't know if I was supposed to go pick up Tommy or just go to school.

Now, I could call him and ask. But....I dunno if I wanna call him or even talk to him. And I'm sure same goes for him.

So it probably makes more sense if I just- go to school on my own. And so I pulled out of the driveway and headed straight to school.

Tommy POV

I finished drinking my smoothie and then went and washed the dish. Ranboo told me that it's considerate and it saves time for my father.

Afterwards I went to the mirror. I was wearing the outfit Ranboo had picked out for me a while ago last week. It was the white shirt which fell three quarters down my thighs and fell off my rightshoulder. A black belt hugging my small waist, hanging down. Fish net leggings and thick black combat boots.

I went and sat down on the couch then checked the time, Huh. It's already eight. Ranboo probably woke up later than usual. It's okay though, he should be here in a few. Still got half an hour till class starts.

Should I text him?

....maybe?

No, no- I'll just wait. I don't wanna be pushy or annoying. I know he's already a little upset. But hopefully he'll feel better when he sees me in the outfit!

Ranboo POV

I arrived at school and got out of the truck. I locked it and then began walking into school. I went to my locker and luckily Tommy wasn't there. I got my things and then headed towards homeroom. It was pretty early, but I wanted to avoid conversation with Tommy for now.

\Time Skip\

Tommy POV

It was 8:20am now. There was no way I would be on time anymore. I got up and went outside. I locked the door and waited by the curb for him. I paced a little bit and then finally gave up.

Uh oh, what if he fell asleep or something? Poor Ranboo, he's gonna be even later than me! Oh I should call him! No...he is a little upset at the moment. Maybe just a text.

I took my phone out and went to Ranboo's contact. I texted him, "I waited for you but you never showed! You must have slept in. Silly you, make sure you get to school!!! <3"

I started walking and accepted the fact I'd be late. It was okay though, I just felt bad for Ranboo having to be super late.

Ranboo POV

Class was about to start so I silenced my phone and put it in my pocket. I paid attention to the teacher as the class began. I glanced beside me and Tommy wasn't there.

Hm. He must be fooling off? Or maybe he was- no, no. It's all good. He's probably just late or sick? Yeah...

\Time Skip\

Tommy POV

Around half an hour later I finally got to school. Luckily homeroom would still be going on. I checked my phone quickly and saw no reply from Ranboo. I frowned, That silly boy, he probably slept through his alarm. I'll call him after class.

I entered school, got my late slip and then went down the hall over to my locker. I put my stuff away and kept my things for homeroom. Then I walked off towards the classroom.

As I turned in I saw the teacher. I handed in my late slip and then turned to go take my seat. But-

...

There I saw Ranboo. Sat down in his seat taking notes. Perfectly on time, looking perfectly rested and awake too.

I scoffed, Did he...forget about me?

Or.....Did he purposely just not pick me up...Gosh I'm such an idiot. He's mad and upset with me- Ofcourse he wouldn't pick me up! Ughhh- I'm an idiot!

But he's also a real jerk for not saying anything to me about it!

I walked over and sat down in my seat. I glanced at him and we locked eyes. I huffed, "Jerk."

"Wh-...." He froze and then his eyes widened, "Tommy I'm so sorry I-"

"I don't care. Just leave me alone." I muttered and then clenched my fist, "I- I wai-" I calmed down, "Nevermind. Let's just drop it for now, talk after."

He nodded and re focused.

God I'm such an idiot- I'm the worst.

Ranboo POV

One thing I noticed was that he wore the outfit I'd picked for him last week. He was stunning, and yet- I....I had just done a total jerk move.

My gosh! He probably waited all morning for me! And I never went, I'm so rude! Jeez, he's gonna be so mad. And I just feel like shit for it. Ughhhh- I'm the worst.

\Time Skip\

Tommy POV

The bell rang and I popped up and began walking out. I was almost out till my arm was grabbed. I pulled back, "Not the time."

"B- Tommy, please? In private, let's just you and me, talk." Ranboo asked me.

I gulped and nodded. He pulled me with him outside and then over to where no one was, "So uh...I take it we've had a slight uhm- miscommunication?"

I nodded then clenched my fist again, "Yeah. I waited! I- I thought you wouldn't forget about me, that just because you were a little upset- It didn't mean you weren't gonna pick me up. Just that you were having a difficult time. But no- You couldn't even call or even text! Just to tell me you couldn't pick me up! So I waited like a fool. And I even wore this outfit, thinking it would make up for something! But no! And you didn't even respond to my message- I thought you slept in...Because I was so convinced you were just- different. But I mean, apparently not. Gosh! You just make a fool out of me like every other boy!"

"Tommy..." He mumbled.

With that I took a deep breath then calmed down. I sighed, "Not the time." And then walked away towards the cafateria.

I heard him take one step, coming after me then he stopped and didn't. It kidna disappointed me to be honest. Like, I wanted him to chase after me- but I also wanted space? I dunno.

I walked into the cafateria and over to the usual table. I tapped Tubbo's shoulder, and gulped then frowned.

He sighed already knowing something was wrong. He got up and together we walked out towards the bleachers. I needed my best friend to talk to right now.

Ranboo POV

I sighed as I opened up my phone and saw the message from Tommy. I clicked it to read, "I waited for you but you never showed! You must have slept in. Silly you, make sure you get to school!!! <3"

He had to be kind and sweet....Ugh- this makes this even more difficult.

I should have at least texted him. Jeez, I'm such an idiot.

"I'm sorry." I sent Tommy on impulse then took a deep breath and sent, "Lunch? <3"

I closed the messages and pocketed my phone, Oh jeez that was bold...Please talk to me Tommy. Please.
